  Deep garnet coloring. Medium+ nose intensity with tons of stewed black fruit, mostly plum and cherry. On the palate, acid is still going strong but complexity of fruit is low showing more of the same fruit as the nose. Some hints of sweet baking spice and fennel. Tannins are very soft and mellow with a nice long finish. I wish there was a bit more complexity in the palate. The alcohol feels a bit hot as well making this wine not well balanced. Drink now, not going to get much better with age.
